This documentary, directed by Toronto filmmaker Peter Conrad and produced by Juan-Luis Suárez, is the result of the research trip that researchers and graduate students of "The Hispanic Baroque Project" (an international research venture funded by SSHRC through a MCRI grant) did to Bolivia last summer. In Bolivia, we visited the capital of the Santa Cruz Department, the Chiquitos region, and the Moxos region in the province of El Beni, in the Amazon. "Guardians of a Musical Treasure" is the story of the Bolivian people and their music, their love for baroque as well as the intensive musical training that children of the communities undergo since they are very young in order to keep their tradition alive.
